Pete,

thanks a lot! I liked more the second option because it perfectly satisfies
the first two requirements and user can not enable himself to receive
messages. I already changed the list header as suggested and worked like a
charm.
I do not know if there is a way to customize LISTSERV for resolving the
third requirement (only receive replies to his own postings). As a
temporary solution I am going to ask the list members to manually include
the assistant in the To: field when replying to his messages. Hope someone
else can provide some input on this.

Thanks again,
Roberto
